The Carolina Panthers placed OG Garry Williams (knee) on the Injured Reserve Monday, Sept. 9, after he suffered a season-ending left knee injury in Week 1. The team does not know who will replace Williams on the roster. OG Amini Silatolu (hamstring) has been cleared to practice without restrictions this week. OG Chris Scott, who started at left guard in Week 1, will move to right guard. Silatolu and OG Travelle Wharton will work on the left side.

Carolina Panthers OL Garry Williams (ankle) said he has been working on strengthen his left ankle during rehab and has been told that his left ankle could become stronger than his right ankle after it is healed.
